Well, they got Ring-bearer right...
I like the idea, although it seems odd to be able to discard a mount for this. Very effective with vitality reducers and 1 vitality minions, otherwise can’t kill.
The other ability aids the Rohan Fighting Ring-bearer strategy... |
Our time here is ending...
What did you want to see before the end?
It will be made in the Request-a-card Set #1 (name ideas also welcome  ). |

Ooh, I very much like this one. Especially now that Rohan has limited condition removal that doesn’t seem to go outside their boundaries.
Very versitle, obviously. 5 from me. |

| The last option seems kinda weird alongside the others, and they shouldn’t have capitalized "wound", but this is a very neat card. A pretty easy 5, especially because of its versatility. |

| Nice. Rohan has so many ways to replay possessions that discarding one is no dig deal. Not overpowered and great picture! |

| Gets a 5 due to its great flexibility. Many uses make a good card. It’s annoying having a card stuck in your hand that doesnt do quite what you want just at that moment but with this you have 3 chances to use it well. Cool and versatile. |

Hmm, very interesting card! But I think I’ll have to play devil’s advocate here... 
Isn’t the second option is just a minor variation on the first? And isn’t the third option useful only against some fairly rare Shadow decktypes? And doesn’t the cost, discarding a  possession, seem a bit steep for a card with a fairly minor effect?
Prove me wrong!  |

Ha! Brilliant! The thought of eomer launching firefoot at the Mumak Commander is an amusing image. As will the thought of throwing gamlings horn at him. Ouch! Hey stop that!  |

"Fetchez le chevel!"
As for you Cobra... Yes, a minor variation, but a key one. One of the big problems for Rohan (back when I remember, at least) was the fact that they could exert minions to no end. But dealing the finishing blow was sometimes harder.
Their key opponent? The 1 (or rarely 2) vitality Dunlendings. If they couldn’t exert them, they can’t get bonuses for wounded minions.
Also, it allows for an interesting use of  /. This provides directed archery, for the price of a possession (which they tend to have more than enough of).
This also allows it to be splashed wherever a possession can be ( decks with Merry?)
That being said, I’m also noticing the wording on the last ability... As far as I know, the only Shadow cards that can go on companions are conditions. So is this a mistake, or will we get other types of cards on the Ring-bearer? |

Either way, "Shadow card" takes less space than "Shadow condition"  |
